Week 8 Progress

Looking Back 

Looking at the progress chart I am on track to get the A I was hoping to get in this class. I definitely dropped off on the extra credit reading I wanted to accomplish. This is not a total surprise as I tend to get busy in the middle of the semester and things drop off. I am really glad that I am a week ahead in all assignments as that was my goal all along. I definitely enjoy the readings the most. Mostly I'm proud of how far I have come in my writing. It's been so long since I had done any creative writing and I am pleasantly surprised by how I've done.

Looking Forward

For the coming weeks, I would definitely like to stop heavy loading this class on two days of the week. I'm hopeful that I can try and spread the assignments out more reasonably throughout the week. I would also like to become more confident in my dialogue writing skills. Since I am unsure of that aspect of writing I mostly try and avoid it. Especially in my storybook, I would like to try and write more dialogue that comes across naturally.

  1. Hey Meghan,

    It was great to come across your progress post in the blog stream. It is awesome that you are progressing nicely and are on track to receive the grade you want. Staying a week ahead is definitely a great goal for finishing early. I hope you finish strong and have a great second half of the semester.

Introduction to Meghan a ChemE Major

In case you couldn't tell from the incredibly boring title, I am not great at talking about myself. I always have a hard time deciding what actually makes me interesting or what people want to hear about me so I'll start with the basics.  I am a senior chemical engineering major here at OU. I have three cats at home but they're a pretty new addition so I don't have any pictures yet (sad I know). I've always wanted a dog but my mom doesn't like them so here we are. I never tell anyone I'm from somewhere since my family has moved almost every three years since I can remember. To date I have lived in: Hazen, ND, Salt Lake City, UT, San Antonio, TX, Ardmore, OK, San Antonio, TX (again), Nashville, TN, Prosper, TX, and of course Norman, OK. Moving around so much gave me a lot of appreciation for new places and new people. I enjoy traveling and am not afraid to go somewhere new. After graduation, I will be moving to Memphis, TN to start my new job! (Photo...

Week 9 Story: Why Cats and Dogs aren't Friends

Why Cats and Dogs aren't Friends (Cat and Dog Fighting from Wikipedia Commons ) There once was a man and a wife who lived in a village. They weren’t rich but they weren’t poor either. One day, foolishly, they decided to sell a valuable gold ring to increase their riches. Unbeknownst to them, the gold ring was magic and ensured that its owner would always be of comfortable wealth. After selling the gold ring they quickly became very poor. They were so poor that they were unable to provide filling meals to their pets: a dog named Rigby and a cat named Holly. “We’re starving Rigby. It’s been months since we’ve had a filling meal,” complained Holly. “I know. If only we could get the gold ring back. Things would be better,” replied Rigby. “I know!” exclaimed Holly. “We could get the ring back. The new owner lives just across the river.” “You know they keep the gold ring locked in a chest. How would we ever get it back?” Rigby questioned. “I’ll catch a mous...
